The same color in the USA, would have to be dictated by the Color Council but rarely is...

Maybe colors are more seasonal...like Spring Green. Who knows how they come up with these choices? I'm just very aware of a lot of these apple greens tossed about in Paris...

Not really Apple green but still fun - this fleur de lis hedge outside the Petit Palace where the Marie-Antoinette exhibit was playing...

Granny Smith apple green top worn with a ripped scarf...

Greeny plates and purses...

Elves are always green right?Apple green to make this pink piggy bank more prominante - think Euro Diet... At Monoprix plenty of storage boxes and stacking stools in Apple green. You don't just wear it. You sit on it in Paris! And you eat off of it - Apple Green silverware... OK an Apple Green garbage pail. So far so good. Nice color etc. But selling for268 EUROS!!!$428.80 for a kitchen garbage pail? Isn't that taking color trends a little too far?

Considering that it will go the way of the avacado green things of the 70's; I think the garbage can is strictly for those who don't know what to do with their Euros. Pomme granny's will always be in style, though.J

l'Ile Saint Louis, Paris, Ile de France, France

Hi I'm Carol Gillott,
My Mom taught me watercolors at 5. I'm still at it, now tripping over cobblestones, living in a 6th-floor garret on l'Ile Saint-Louis, Paris. Read Parisbreakfast with a hot chocolate and croissant.
I paint Paris breakfasts.
